Cultivation of Immortality

Hongshi, who was hiding in the main room, clearly heard Qing'er's instructions to his son. Then he saw his son just looking up at the courtyard for a while, and then a little sparrow flew to his side. The son stretched out his hand, and the hovering little sparrow soon fell into his palm.

"Mom." Zhui'er calmly held up the little sparrow and showed it to Qing'er.

"It's so fun." Qing'er pretended to tease the little sparrow, then straightened up and said, "Okay, let it go."

As soon as Zhui'er raised his hand, the little sparrow flew away immediately.

Hongshi stood stunned for a while before walking out of the main room. He took the grass from Qing'er's hand and filled it up with soil without saying a word.

Qing'er knew that Hongshi needed some time to calm down, so she took Zhui'er back to her grandfather's house.

After Hongshi filled up the big hole, Qing'er had already put her son to sleep, and the two of them whispered to each other while guarding the treasures.

Qing'er first said, "It is God's will that Zhui'er can find these treasures hidden by grandpa. We should follow God's will and send our children to Iron Sword Gate."

Hongshi frowned and said, "It's easy for you to say! You can't walk such a long way without money. It's good to stay at home for a thousand days, but it's hard to go out for one day. What should you do if you encounter a thief and lose your money? If you encounter a robber, What to do? What should I do if I encounter wolves, worms, tigers and leopards while traveling through so many wilderness areas? What should I do if I get sick along the way? "As an honest and responsible person, Hongshi is very concerned about this kind of thing. Traveling far away was very timid. Now that he had acquired such a large sum of money, of course he wanted to live a good life. As for his son's strangeness, he just had to keep it secret.

Qing'er could guess what her husband was thinking. She snorted coldly and said, "To tell you the truth, your son has already provoked the spirits in the river. If he doesn't leave here, he won't have a good life."

"Then the river demon was killed by grandpa, wasn't it?" Hongshi didn't know about the silver pendant, so he just assumed that the river demon was killed by grandpa.

Qing'er didn't bother to explain too much to him and directly told Zhui'er about the fight with the little girl holding a winter melon. Hongshi was dumbfounded again. He had heard of the legend about a child holding a winter melon.

"Everything I told you is true!" Qing'er looked at Hongshi with a stern look, and then persuaded, "Have you ever thought about it, this Iron Sword Gate should be the place where grandpa learned his skills, and it might be the place where the immortals The mountain gate is set up in the human world. Zhui'er is born with extraordinary talents. No matter where we move, we will inevitably be entangled by spirits. How can we protect ourselves in the future if we don't let him learn some skills? Let me tell you something more. Our yard? It is protected by immortal magic. Don’t ask me where this immortal magic comes from. I can’t explain it, but I can confirm that Zhui’er has caused calamity clouds. Without the protection of immortal magic, he would have died soon after he was born. He was struck to death by a thunderbolt. Immortal magic can only protect this one courtyard, so we can’t let Zhui’er go out forever, right?”

Hongshi was a little confused and said dissatisfiedly, "How many things are you hiding from me?"

Qing'er curled her lips and said, "Do you think I am willing? Do you think it is good for me to be alone and worried all these years? I am not afraid of scaring you, but now I have to say it. If you want to think about your son, don't be afraid of hardship. It’s hard to send your children to Iron Sword Gate with me. This is also grandpa’s wish. You know grandpa’s abilities better than anyone else. Since grandpa has determined that such a day will come, then we should believe in grandpa’s arrangements.

Grandpa will naturally bless us along the way. "

Hongshi was silent. As an ordinary fisherman, it was difficult for him to accept such a big thing and make up his mind. This was not a trip of hundreds of miles. It was hard to even estimate how far this journey was. , there is no way to understand the conditions of the journey. Even if everything goes well, it will take a year. Not to mention a fisherman like him, it is also a huge challenge for a businessman who is accustomed to traveling around the world.

Qing'er did not continue to urge Hongshi. She found two pieces of silk cloth, divided the gold and silver jewelry into two parts, and carefully wrapped them in silk cloth.

"What about parents?" Hongshi said in a sullen voice. He still wanted to find a reason to make Qing'er change her mind.

Qing'er pointed at the two packages, "This money is enough. Half of it will be used for transportation, and the other half will be left to the two elders. Don't let them live in the village. Zhui'er has offended the Dragon King's daughter. There's no guarantee that she won't be angry with him." Parents, let the second elder go to the town to join your eldest sister. The money is enough to buy a house for the second elder to live leisurely, even if we can't come back..."

Qing'er didn't finish her words, but the firm light in her eyes made Hongshi clearly understand her determination, "You... really want to take this trip?" Hongshi looked at the long path map worriedly.

Qing'er pointed to the portrait of the "human spirit" at the end of the map and said, "This person is an elder of grandpa. You think it was grandpa who killed the river demon, but it was actually the silver pendant that this elder cast magic power on. It is the pendant." The one my son was wearing, my grandfather tried his best to stop the river demon. The silver pendant he gave me easily killed the river demon. Do you think it’s worth sending our children to learn art in these portraits? Everyone in the family is considered to be a fairy-like figure. As long as we find any one of them, we tell them about their family background and implore them to accept the pendant. Most of these people will agree because of grandpa's kindness. In this way , Not only does Zhui'er no longer have to worry about being entangled by spirits, but he is also expected to become an immortal. If that is the case, I will be willing to die."

Hongshi was silent again. After a long time, he finally said, "If you have to go, I will take Zhui'er alone and you stay at home to take care of your parents. But you have to allow me to think about this carefully." , the journey is too long, to put it bluntly, you may not be able to come back if you go there.”

Qing'er held her husband's arm and said with firm eyes, "The three of us will go together, good or bad."

"Please stop causing trouble. I have to take care of you if we go together." Hongshi pushed her away upset.

"Who needs you to take care of me?" Qing'er curled her lips disdainfully, stood up and stood in the center of the room, took a T-step, put one hand behind her back, and reached out to the red stone with the other, as if she wanted to compete with it. This is In many places, boys have played a strength competition since they were young. The two of them lean on each other's front feet and clasp their hands to see who can pull the other to the point where they cannot stand.

"Take a break!" Hongshi glanced at Qing'er impatiently, then frowned and started thinking.

"Come here!" Qing'er stared and refused to give up.

Hongshi has always been somewhat afraid of Qing'er because of his love for her. In fact, "fear" is a bit too much. It's more because he doesn't want to go against Qing'er's wishes. Seeing that Qing'er didn't give up now, he had no choice but to walk over, not even bothering to do so. After getting ready, he stretched out his hand and held Qing'er's hand. He wanted to make her stagger casually so that she could become self-aware. Hongshi, who was hiding in the main room, clearly heard Qing'er's instructions to his son. Then he saw his son just looking up at the courtyard for a while, and then a little sparrow flew to his side. The son stretched out his hand, and the hovering little sparrow soon fell into his palm.
